Can’t say enough good things about this hotel. Beautiful grounds with abundant wildlife and gorgeous flora. Our hosts, both Dylan and Madeline were friendly, knowledgeable and extremely helpful. They made you feel like family. Our rooms were large and comfortable. Our only caution is that the property is built on a hillside so it may pose a challenge if you have difficulty walking, but you can always request a room at the main level. While we were there, we saw toucans, monkeys and macaws right on the property. A highlight for us! We also at breakfast and dinner there as well. Although the menu is small, everything was so delicious.
My wife and I had a wonderful four days at the hotel. The staff (Madeline, Dillon and Brandon) should be commended for making us feel like it was our private resort. The hotel is in an incredible setting- so close to the downtown yet it feels like you are in your own ecosystem with nature.
The pool, patio, food were all wonderful. Our suite was very unique and comfortable- just a bit dated but otherwise no issues.
We would stay there again in a heartbeat!

What’s good - property has character and feels like you’re in the jungle. Breakfast is included. Pool area is clean and refreshing.
What was challenging - no real food menu beyond pizza. The electricity went out for 4+ hours one night. The mtn top units are very steep to travel to. The connecting road was under construction so all transportation takes a bit longer. The better restaurants and beaches are always a drive away
This is a gorgeous property with a very friendly and helpful staff. We enjoyed every bit of our 3-night stay. Delicious meals and many thoughtful amenities. Would definitely stay here again!
The property was unique, built on different hills, getting to them for older people is difficult, steep stairs and slopes. For younger people it's alright. Transportation was difficult from the hotel, only option was taxi, but the closeness to the Marina made it a good option, there were several excellent restaurants so eating there was great. The staff was excellent, especially Anita, very helpful, efficient and kind. They did their to make us feel comfortable and happy.

While staff was excellent & I enjoyed the uniqueness of room layouts and close proximity to everything in/around Quepos/Manuel Antonio — this property has MANY areas for improvement. 1) The road to access the property is riddled with huge potholes. I know potholes are pretty normal in Costa Rica but these were ENORMOUS and the owners should look into re paving the road to ensure their guests don’t blow out a tire or damage an axle on a rental vehicle. 2) AC is locked at a pretty high temp and doesn’t allow guests to control the temp of the room to their liking. For any enjoyable holiday, this is a MUST being that the hotel is located in the heart of a tropical area with high heat/humidity. 3) There was a smell of raw sewage gas coming thru the bathroom & permeating the entirety of the room for our entire stay. Again, I understand there are certain limitations with Costa Rican toilets/sewage in general. But I’m also aware that this could possibly maybe solved by having P traps installed or whatever you have to do to spare guests from smelling that for their entire stay. 4) The parking lot was so small that guests were forced to double park blocking other guests from leaving or parking way outside the gate and down the hill etc. the owners need to invest in a supplemental parking area for their guests. 5) Beds were brick hard & super uncomfortable. I travel extensively & large majority of hotel beds I encounter are adequate. In this case, I got horrible sleep all 4 nights :(
Absolutely STUNNING. We saw Macaw birds as we ate breakfast!
Breakfast was delicious and all the staff were attentive.
We had to leave late on the day of our checkout and they held all our bags and gave us a shower to use when we got back from Manuel Antonio.
Pool is beautiful and the entire property is pretty.
Five minute walk to the town and a beautiful marina with live music.
Great, creative rooms with lots of space and magnificent windows overlooking the jungle.
Staff really outstanding and helpful.

Spent only a night at this property. Completely overpriced for the quality of experience. Shower drain was blocked, water in the WC took forever to drain after each use and for whatever reason the laundry service was not available. To their credit, the hotel staff were friendly and tried to fix things but so many things going wrong in room in a single day seems more like poor management oversight of the property.
I chose this property based on a nine out of 10 review on Expedia. This property is very dated with uncomfortable beds and difficult to navigate walkways. The area to access the property Very rundown. The free breakfast is fair, but the menu is very limited. This deserves a six or seven out of 10.
We loved staying at this beautifully designed small hotel with great on-site restaurant and refreshing pool. Everything is surrounded by lush green gardens and flowers, tropical birds including scarlet macaws were among our neighbors.
We enjoyed the treehouse feel of our spacious and clean room. They are currently doing some renovations that was a little noisy during the day, but the evening and early morning was perfect for bird watching. We will stay here again.
Las Cascadas has amazing virws of the mountains behind it. We saw birds and monkeys and even deer during our stay. The marina is very conveniently located just down the hill. This hotel is on a mountain, so there are a lot of hills and stairs. If you don't mind a hike, this hotel is definitely for you. All the staff were friendly and willing to help however they could. If you have not rented a vehicle, i suggest contacting them to arrange transportation from the airport in Quepos
Loved unit #10! We called it the hobbit house! Loved the painted murals on the ceiling . Surrounding patios which was part of our unit was spacious and overlooking the property where we witnessed mackals nesting in the early morning . Food was excellent !
This property consists of a collection of very unique villas all sprinkled across the hillside. Our “honeymoon “ villa (no. 10) was arguably the nicest - it was perched at the top of the hillside and had a huge private porch to view the surrounding mountains. When we first checked in (the reception desk is also the main bar!) and hiked up to the room we were greeted by a pair of scarlet macaws that nested in plain view. They were intermittently around all three days of our stay. Shortly afterwards a band of monkeys came swinging through and actually came right onto the porch. But, be aware that the trek up to some of these cabanas are quite strenuous. It’s worth the effort, but you’ll definitely work for it.
Such a lovely, family-friendly place to stay up on the hill with all of the birds and lush trees. We loved swimming in the pool. And the hotel was very helpful about signing us up for a guided hike to the waterfalls!
Loved the hospitality at this hotel! My friend and I only stayed one night but had a great time. Definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Quepos.
